Please Help!

I’ve already posted this but I think it deleted? Sorry I’m new to the app. My baby boys 2 months old he got colic when he was a couple weeks old since then I’ve been using infacol I’ve had no problems he’s been absolutely fine. The last few days my baby’s been crying none stop when awake and he only goes to sleep once he’s worn himself out to the point he just passes out to sleep. He’ll close his eyes for a few minutes then wake up screaming. I think he’s in pain I’ve been to the GP 4 times now and was in A&E with him yesterday we was there for hours and hours and every doctor hasn’t given me a single answer and has said everything’s fine with him. I’m only 19 i have no one no friends no family I’m trying so hard for my baby I’m honestly doing the best I can do for him. But no doctors are listening to me I know in my heart somethings wrong. I can’t go to sleep because I’m so scared that I’ll wake up and something would’ve happened to him. I don’t think the doctors are taking me seriously because of my age 2 doctors have said to me “oo your a young mum aren’t you” and that was the first sentence they said to me not even a hi how is everything what’s the problem! Please help me i honestly don’t know what to do I’ve tried everything I can think of I saw this app on Facebook and people said they ask questions on here for advice so I thought I’d give it a shot. Please be kind I really am trying I promise.

Don’t know about others but my baby actually got worse pains with infacol so I started using gripe water instead which seemed to help, I also was using tommee tippee bottles which I’ve now stopped using as so many people told me their babies colic was worse with them (don’t know if you’re using them) Have you got a nice health visitor? They’re good for speaking to doctors to express concerns if the doctors aren’t wanting to take you seriously Hope it gets better for you! My boy was around 4 months when his colic/ gas pain started to wear off xx

I know how you feel I went through the same thing with my first even though I was a lot older than you, it’s was still so hard. Take each day as it comes, you’ve done the right thing by checking with your doctors, maybe reach out to a health visitor, Some things that helped me was : - gripe water instead of Infacol - burping after every feed or even midway - tummy massage before or after bath - a warm bath used to help him relax especially in the evenings when he was screaming his head off - baby sling, it keeps them upright and they also feel calm being next to you - take him outside, go for a walk - talk to him about anything like as if he can understand you If you are struggling to soothe him especially when he won’t stop crying and you’re feeling like you can’t cope then put him safely in his cot and sit in another room just to calm yourself down and then try again. You got this I started to enjoy motherhood more around the 4/5month mark when they can play a little more x
